    • Vinnie states these are VO2 Max, resting heart rate, oxygen numbers, blood metrics, vitamin and mineral levels, grip strength, anaerobic strength, and flexibility.
    • The article states VO2 Max, HRV, consistent sleep, respiratory rate, and number of steps—Vinnie agrees that that’s a start.
  • Take the opportunity to add more steps to your day, whether shopping or at the airport, there is a way to get more active. (30:00)
  • Jenny McCarthy has switched from being vegan to being a carnivore. (41:00)
  • Chris reads another headline about vegan burgers and recent food testing. (45:00)

Angriest Trainer 119: BioFuels, The “Refresher,” and Stretching

by Vinnie Tortorich

Vinnie and Anna discuss being preppy in the 80s, biofuels, the “Refresher,” and the importance and how-tos of stretching.  NYT article on stretching studies here: Reasons Not To Stretch.

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

In this episode, Vinnie talks about his days at Newman School in New Orleans. A former student recently found him through Facebook. That leads to a trip down memory lane about Vinnie’s good old days as a strength and conditioning coach in the 80s. Later, Vinnie goes off on a rant about the Starbucks “Refresher.” Down the line in this podcast, Vinnie talks about First Lady Michelle Obama, who recently invited some kids to the White House. Vinnie and Anna also go into detail about stretching.
